Ruins
Did life spiral out of control for you too this year? Or in the last three years? Mine sure did. The life I built died and I am still here, watching the smoke rise up from the ruins while some ghosts dance around, pretending that they are alive. This sort of feels like I’ve travelled…
What now?
He knew. The moment he walked through the door, there was no denying it. Something has changed. Was it him? Was it her? Was it just the time spent apart? There was no answer. Only a deep uncomfortable feeling of “not anymore.” If he had any doubts of how much he has changed, in that…
Thoughts about Light
Light always finds a way, doesn’t it? I so admire its uncontainable power! It finds the slightest crack in the place where it is placed, and it will escape to the “outside” through there. Light not only escapes from contained places, but also invades darkness everywhere. Light finds a way in and a way out.…
The Sound of Sunrise
Yes, for me the sunrise has sound too, not just stillness and beauty. The sound of God’s heart. I see mornings as precious appointments with God where He shares His heart with us before going on this new adventure that we call “today.” This morning was about the way He created the whole world. An…
Pivot
Today feels like a good day to start. “Start what?” you might ask. Well, I am not sure. Something. I only have the “when.” The “when” is now. So, I invite you to accompany me on this journey of discovery. Unknown destination, but wheels already in motion. And as this “start” is taxiing towards the…
One more
We hold inside a lot of aches. A lot of “what if”-s and “but, maybe”-s. A few “if only”-s, a lot of “I wish”. And one or two of “I won’t” “can’t let this go” “can’t let this die” “can’t let this stay in the past” “I’ll carry it with me, forever” “I refuse to…
Adios
Today is goodbye. Goodbye to the me you once knew. We’re done. She’s done. It’s over. No more “what if”-s. No more “but maybe”-s. The end is here. Embrace it. In this “here” I am standing now There is a lot of rumbling. A death, a birth, an old, a new.. Oh, wow! .. they…
Gas(or)light(?)
You cut my heart in a million pieces. Twisted my reality in myriad ways. Who am I and what is real Today I barely know. What I remember is that it was my fault. Always. Somehow it still is… or so they say. By the time I had enough, it was like nothing ever happened,…
Self-love
Today I met a young, exhausted, girl in my wandering through my memories. I looked her deeply in the face and recognized myself. She was in constant turmoil. Every five seconds she was asking herself if she has done enough or if she has completely messed up the future; what if someone from the future…
Intermission.
Take the time. Everyone will stare and expect to keep on entertaining. But leave it all there and take that time to rest your whole being, not just your soul. People will still be there when you come back. The show will go on – with or without breaks. Take your break. Rest sparks creativity.…
